    Thanks Dave. That is probably the one I have seen on E-Bay. It is the open handle version and I hope you get it.

    I caught this one on sale for $37.50 and I don't regret it one bit.

    I spent a little time polishing mine up a little more. Wet sanded with 1200 grit sand paper and put it to the cotton wheel with the white past. Spent a good amount of time with the wet sanding but I think it paid off.

    Take care and I'm keeping my fingers crossed that your offer is accepted.

    A great shave this morning, but I'm afraid the Gillette Red Tip wasn't much of a factor in the persuasion. 0:25 and 0:15 to load the Jayaruh#59 brush with the Grandpa's Barbershop soap(Central Texas Soaps). Good painting action all around. For the first pass, I began with the Red Tip, going WTG(North to South)and it may have killed off a few whiskers, but that was it. Very frustrating. Same on the other cheek. I went for the DisposeABLE sooner that the plan called for, and it performed an excellent job in "long" relief. Actually, at times during the long relief, I did try the Red Tip in other areas, but again it just didn't feel as though I was succeeding. I'll look it over today(inside, at the blade spot to see if it remained firmly in place, as I thought for sure it was yesterday). No cuts or Knicks. Outta This World Excellent going 4-4. As I once said, I always want my Throwback Thursdays to be successful. As for the Red Tip, I'll keep working with it....trying to make sense of it.

    Thank you Joe. I’m a very fortunate guy. I can safely say I got the better end of the deal finding her.

    Yeah, you stole it and it looks great, Thanks
    If the Red tip isn't cutting, your angle is off. Nice end result though.
    Thanks Jeff

    You do the same Jeff....more snow today.
    I should have added...for whatever reason, I struggle with proper angling.
